Jim Cramer has been considering a potential investment in BlackRock, the world’s largest asset manager, and we’re now adding it to our Bullpen stocks-to-watch list. The news BlackRock shares surged to a record high Friday after the firm posted third-quarter earnings that crushed analysts’ expectations, yet again. Management also announced that assets under management reached another record high, an incredible $11.5 trillion, on surging inflows as the stock market rallied. “We’ve added $2 trillion organically over the last five years. $2 trillion is the equivalent of being in the ranks of the sixth largest asset managers,” CEO Larry Fink told CNBC on Friday after the release. Fink also praised BlackRock’s recent $12.5 billion acquisition of Global Infrastructure Partners, which added more than $100 billion in assets. Big picture The financial industry kicked off quarterly earnings Friday. In addition to BlackRock, Club name Wells Fargo was among the companies that delivered strong results. Morgan Stanley , also in the portfolio, reports next Wednesday. It’s been a murky operating environment for the Wall Street behemoths, which were forced to navigate higher-for-longer interest rates until the Federal Reserve finally cut rates last month. The Fed’s next move has been a point of debate. Right after last month’s jumbo 50-basis-point cut, the market had expected another 75 basis points worth of cuts before year-end. Now that odds favor just 50. Bottom line BlackRock’s stellar quarterly results highlight another reason for the Club to consider an initiation of the stock. That’s why we put the stock in the Bullpen. Management’s track record draws us in further as Fink expands the firm’s footprint in private markets, and delivers quarter after quarter of steller inflows. BlackRock shares have been on a tear recently โ€“ up more than 12% in the past month versus the S & P 500’s roughly 4% gain. Jim Cramer said Friday he knows the stock has run a lot, “but that doesn’t mean it can’t run more.” Why have we waited to pull the trigger on the stock? Jim said Thursday he wished he had but he’s been dealing with Wells Fargo and Morgan Stanley, and we don’t make these moves in haste. (Jim Cramer’s Charitable Trust is long MS, WFC.
